Peeled Snacks Review and Giveaway...

Thanks to Peeled Snacks, we recently had the chance to try out this Organic Fruit Picks Variety Pack:

About Peeled Snacks:

"In New York City in 2004, Noha Waibsnaider founded Peeled Snacks when she noticed something missing from the world of snack foods. Store shelves were full of processed potato chips, corn syrup-filled candy, and energy bars made with too many mysterious ingredients. But you couldn't get anything healthy and tasty that made you feel good about snacking. So she set about to fix that problem.
Her solution? Three tasty and nourishing varieties of fruit & nut mixes that became Peeled Snacks. Peeled Snacks are made with ingredients that you recognize. Large, easy-to-eat pieces of fruit and nuts provide a natural source of vitamins, minerals and fiber - with NO added sugar or fat. The nuts are dry roasted and lightly salted. And for the chocolate lovers, we use the finest rich dark chocolate with 61% cacao in our Shock-olate variety.
At Peeled Snacks we know that food starts out delicious and nutritious, and it doesn't need some machine to improve it, or engineering to perfect it. We bring you food that's as close to its natural state as possible. So make snacking a satisfying part of your lifestyle by eating food as it was meant to be: peeled."

What we thought: If you are looking for a healthy snacking alternative, Peeled Snacks may just be the answer for you. We were very impressed by the taste of these yummy little snacks. I have to be honest, at first sight we were a little concerned because some of the pieces of fruit aren't the prettiest to look at, but the flavor was deliciousness enough to keep all of us coming back for more:) I was especially impressed with the cherries and the apples, but all of the flavors tasted like real dried fruit without the super sugary taste of some of the processed dried fruit that is out there today. I loved the larger pieces that made snacking easier for little hands and big hands alike. These snacks were perfect for on-the-go snacking and I felt really good about what the kiddos were eating when I served them Peeled Snacks. At first, I thought I might prefer a bag with a zipper closure, but then I realized we could finish a whole bag at once:) And because it's so healthy for you, that is okay:) ABCD Diaries gives Peeled Snacks an A+!
